TYPO3-extension News Snapin
===========================

[](#typo3-extension-news-snapin)

Layout-Container for the TYPO3 extension news, with the advantage that the content-elements can be assigned to define-able areas. So Wiki-pages, Knowlegbases or just feature-rich articles can be created. Think about diagrams, tables, individual article-layouts, footnotes and individual extensions bound to a single article instead of a whole page.

extension-key: wdb\_news\_snapin

Installation:

- On commandline: `composer require wdb/wdb-news-snapin`.
- Update database scheme in the TYPO3 installation.
- Include static template on a page where the news-page and the news-storage-page are included.

Important: For TYPO3 versions lower than 11 you've to adapt the pagebrowser in List.html for news perhaps.
With TYPO3-11 the widget API was removed and news-9.x never includes corresponding code anymore.

Below you see a screenshot of one news detail in frontend:

- the news is the block in the center
- surrounding blocks are added with `wdb_news_snapin` and can be changed in layout and content for every news article.
